El Gonzo said:I believe that these translations have some significant differences from the ones on misago.org.

Aye. As mentioned in another thread, MP's dialogue sounds smoother and more colloquial and they actually got some of the terms correctly right away (such as "Hatsuseno" vs. "Hasseno") but I prefer YKK Translation's more evocative choice of words when it comes to the "heavier" text.

From the short essay:

Manga Project said:As this music is born, it gives your existence new meaning.

After we greet one another, let us sing together, let this sound carry on for a little while...
As we savor this magical moment.

YKK Translations said:To the song born in this moment, your existence is very precious.

If if pleases you, come sing with me. There is yet time before the night.
The sweetest time of all.

From Yokosuka Cruise:

Manga Project said:Where there had been only trees, or streetlight poking above the sea, there was light.
The streetlights shone without any practical purpose.
Now the lights shone for nothing but the sake of shining
...These northern lights are all that is left of the old people...

YKK Translations said:Although there is now nothing but forest, the lights still shine above the waves.
Once, these lights shone with purpose.
Now, they shine only for the sake of shining.
...Flowers of lights, left to us by the people of days gone by.
